This is last week at my place in Georgia. Towed this rig, sometimes with a 7 ft. harrow and brush hog on also. There is NO weight distribution for this trailer and my tractor is a Ford 2000, 36 hp. diesel.

Now, the answer, Timbren bumper stops. When I hook up, the truck drops about an inch to contact the Timbren's. Then, it literally stops going down. No sag, no sway and about 15 mpg when I tow my 24ft tractor trailer loaded up. Do not know the weight but I can load heavy over or in front of the axles with no issues. Find that tractor weight on the internet as my book is at my place in Georgia. Add a huge 24 ft. trailer, harrow, scooter plow and brush hog to come up with some weight idea.
